The pettiness of sadistic fascism is meant to dull your values and your feelings. Don’t let it. “The crosswalk was part of a larger memorial to the 49 people who were killed after a gunman opened fire at the gay nightclub in June 2016, in what was then the largest mass shooting in US history.”

Check this shit! Earlier today, ICE tried to break into private property in Lynwood, California — no judicial warrant, no authority. Acting like thugs, not federal agents. Spoiler alert: Lynwood does not play. This trio of goons got sent packing.

This 👇🏾 “Why do they need masks? They’re federal officials, they’re paid by the taxpayers. They should be doing their jobs in a way that’s lawful and constitutional, and that’s part of the job.” DC Mayor Bowser questions why so many federal officers in the capital continue to cover their faces.

John Deere announced that it will lay off over 200 workers, citing the economic uncertainty created by Trump's tariffs. Workers aren't just paying more for everyday goods now because of tariffs, their jobs are also on the line. It's a recipe for a bigger economic disaster.

This is so important… Sharon has been tracking license plates on cars driven by ICE agents, and she’s finding they don’t match the vehicles. In other words, ICE is using secret, illegal tactics—just like we suspected. REMINDER: the DMV is not a federal agency. @governor.ca.gov 🧵

The clearest picture of corporate greed in this country is CEO-to-worker pay ratios. At the 100 lowest-paying major US companies, CEO pay averaged $17.2M in 2024. Median worker pay at these companies was just $35,570. That’s a ratio of 632 to 1. How can anyone defend this?
